Outreach and Home Delivery Services

Outreach Services Specialist: Julia Bachmann

Ohio County Public Library’s Outreach Services program provides home delivery of library materials to temporarily or permanently homebound patrons throughout Ohio County. Being an outreach patron means that books and library materials are delivered DIRECTLY TO YOUR DOOR.

If you live in a local high-rise or retirement home, Ohio County Public Library outreach services will visit your facility twice each month, according to a regular schedule. Outreach patrons in private residences simply call to schedule a convenient delivery time.

Schools and daycare centers are also eligible for outreach services. Monthly book selections are delivered according to a regular monthly schedule.

Materials Donation Policy

OCPL appreciates the generosity and thoughtfulness of its many patrons in donating books, historical materials, and other library materials to the Library. Because of the overwhelming number of items donated, the limited amount of staff time to handle these donations, and limited space to house the donated materials, OCPL must restrict the donations accepted. We welcome donations of books, historical materials, and other materials of value. Please read more about our Donation Policies:
